Does MPLAB X have a call-graph analysis tool?

Question

I'd like to start understanding how deep my microcontroller's stack goes (even if it's only an estimation).

How can I do this using MPLAB X?

Answer 1

• During code editing, you have the possibility to view the call graph:

• During debugging, you have the possibility to view the call stack:

The call stack window provides a way to view the subroutine calls and interrupts that have occurred to bring the program to its current position.

To view the call stack, select from the main menu: Window ▸ Debugging ▸ Call Stack or use the keyboard shortcut Alt+Shift+3.
